Last time on Now and Then!…

"I can't believe I HAVE A GIRL!"  #18 said excitedly. 

"Do you ever wonder what you'll have?"  #18 asked.

Marron blushed. 

"I've never really thought about kids before."  Marron said. 

"Oh."  #18 said hopping off the bed.  She smiled and ran out the door. 

Marron sighed and layed back down and fell asleep.

Now!…

While Marron was sleeping Goten was standing in the doorway.

"Is Trunks alright?"  Marron asked worriedly.

Goten shook his head to get out of his daze.

"Figures."  He whispered.

"She'll be fine Goten." 

Goten turned around to see his brother Gohan smiling.

Goten tried to put a fake smile on.

"Don't even try…I know you better than that.  What's wrong?"  Gohan asked standing on the other side of the door.

"Marron…"  Goten turned to her and frowned.

"Loves Trunks."  Goten bowed his head.

Gohan looked a little surprised.

"I know, that's how I felt."  Goten said refering to his brother's shocked face.

"Every time."  Goten began somewhat angrily.

"I love you like a brother Goten, could you give Trunks my number?"  Goten said mocking some girls he's gone out with.

"What's so great about Trunks?"  Goten asked sitting down in a chair in Marron's room.

Marron was awake the whole time but kept her eyes shut.

"Hey, you'll find the right girl…are you sure she likes Trunks?"  Gohan asked putting a hand on his brother's shoulder to comfort him.

"Positive…she woke up and the first thing she askes is if Trunks is alright."  Goten sighed.

Gohan nodded.

"I love Marron, everyone knows it except her and if she finds out then she'll wanna 'Talk' about how she loves me like a brother and it'll be just like EVERY other girl I've dated."

"Sorry bro."  Gohan said sadly.

"You're so lucky Gohan, you never had anyone that was better.  Videl loved you the second she met you…"  Goten began.

"Are you kidding?  She hated me when we first met.  The only thing she liked was fighting."  Gohan laughed.

"Well, you didn't have any competition then."  Goten pointed out.

Gohan laughed.

"Myself…"  Gohan began.

"What?"  Goten asked looking at him.

"The great saiyaman.  Videl loved 'him' more than Gohan…"  Gohan continued.

"No, she loved saiyaman because she thought it was you.  Then when she found out she blackmailed you to spend time with her."  Goten pointed out matter-of-factly.

Gohan sighed.

"Alright.  You got me there."  Gohan said.

"You tried.  Thanks Gohan…You've been a great brother."  Goten said.

Gohan nodded.

"No prob…who else could put up with you?"  Gohan teased.

Goten smiled as Gohan left the room.

Out in the hallway Gohan leaned on the wall.  He looked in at Goten then sighed.

'Man, he's grown up so much.'  Gohan thought.

Goten continued to watch Marron.

She was pretty close to tears.

'He loves me?  He loves me!  How can I tell him without him knowing I was listening?'  Marron thought.

She pretended to just wake up.

"Hey, morning Mar."  Goten said with a small smile.

"Morning.  Goten?  Will you forgive me for being rude earlier.  I meant to ask how you were…" 

Goten cut her off.

"Don't worry about it Mar.  I'm fine…I just overreacted."  Goten smiled.

Marron smiled lightly.

"Thanks for saving my life."  Marron said.

"It was nothing…it runs in the family."  Goten said rolling his eyes.

Marron laughed.

"Well, you're good at it…feel free to save my life any time you want.  Noone else did."  Marron said kind of sadly.

"Trunks would have if he wasn't held up."  Goten said sadly.

Marron preteded to look confused.

"I don't care if Trunks saved me.  That would be if…Gohan saved me."  Marron said making a grossed out face.

Goten laughed.

They spent the rest of the morning talking and laughing.  Goten started acting like his normal funny self and Marron liked him a lot better for it.

Sorry this chapter wasn't very exciting but the next one will be!  Thanks to C-town Chica and princessdbztrunks for the only reviews for last chapter!  I hope you like this one too!
